* At the end of Chapter 95, Senku's team picks up on a transmission of Morse code while out at sea. The message is one word, accompanied by the image of a skeletal face on the last spread of pages: "WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY". Not only is it possible that people other than Senku's team and Ishigami village are still alive, but they have technological capabilities ''beyond Senku's''.

* Chapter 194 cranks up the fear, Suika is alone, [[AdultFear think about it]]. She is the only person who is alive as the last human on Earth. And it takes her ''years'' before she manages to finally make revival fluid. Imagine having to spend that long as the only person in the world, with the only hope being to follow some complex instructions (despite being barely literate) that involve a lot of trial and error and a year of waiting. [[TheWoobie Suika's really got it tough.]]

* The bloodshed continues in Chapter 189. Taiju's noted [[MadeOfIron durability]] does indeed have a limit, as he takes a big explosion to the face. We don't see his body, but from Gen pleading for him to wake up, it is not pretty. Then the chapter ends with Ryusui getting shot through the chest as a grenade engulfs their diamonds. For the first time, things truly seems hopeless for Senku.

* Chapter 201: The Why-Man sends a new Morse Code message that isn't just "Why". This time, it's a threat.
-->'''DO YOU WANNA DIE?!'''
* Chapter 213: The Medusa suddenly activating on its own. No one knows how big the diameter of the light is but the fact that the medusa getting triggered is enough to send shivers down the spine.

* The very premise involves all of humanity being TakenForGranite. During this time, they are still conscious for at least a short time, but [[AndIMustScream unable to move or see anything]]. And you're forced to keep yourself awake for millennia if you want to be able to break out on your own. It's not just an InferredHolocaust either, as we get to see car accidents and planes falling from the sky, killing off countless people without leaving them any chance of surviving or being rescued later.

* Chapter 188: Previously when the Kingdom of Science fought against Stanley and Xeno's forces, they were able to come out on to their [[CharlesAtlasSuperpower prowess]] coming out on top with Xeno himself as a hostage. This chapter highlights [[RealityEnsues exactly how an encounter with guns would end]]. Tsukasa, Hyoga, and Kohaku, despite accomplishing their goal, get gunned down. Their only hope for Senku to successfully activate a petrification device before they bleed out so the petrification process can heal them, although in Hyoga's case it might be too late.

* Chapter 188: Previously when the Kingdom of Science fought against Stanley and Zeno's forces, they were able to come out on to their [[CharlesAtlasSuperpower prowess]] coming out on top with Zeno himself as a hostage. This chapter highlights [[RealityEnsues exactly how an encounter with guns would end]]. Tsukasa, Hyoga, and Kohaku, despite accomplishing their goal, get gunned down. Their only hope is if the petrification process can either turn them to stone or bring them back to life in the case of Hyoga.

* Chapter 110, [[https://i.imgur.com/xpwmU1S.png Kohaku tries some make-up]].

* Gen suddenly getting assaulted and a ''spear through the chest'' comes nearly out of nowhere and happens so fast it's jarring. Yeah, he had been prepared, but it's very easy to be shocked into thinking that its the first (actual) death in the series.

* Chapter 110, [[https://i.imgur.com/xpwmU1S.png Kohaku tries some make up]].

* Chapter 149: How does the crew learn there are survivors in America? A hail of machine gun fire. Had Tsukasa and the battle team not sensed him, they would have all been dead.
* Chapter 180 has what could simultaneously be the most terrifying and beautiful image in the entire manga. The crew, after years of dedicated work, blood, sweat and tears have finally found the source of the petrification beam that wiped out humanity thousands of years ago. What they happen upon is huge, shiny mountain glistening beautifully in the sunlight... that turns out to be made from what is potentially ''several hundred thousand petrification devices''. We knew that there were many of these things already, and that just ''one'' could wipe out all of humanity if used properly (fortunately, the ones in the pile are all revealed to be powerless), but the [[ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill sheer number]] of them shows just how disgustingly CrazyPrepared the Why-Man really is, and how much of a threat he poses.
